Kiosk mode for oculus go

[Jonnyboybaby]

Might have posted this in the wrong place, so Mods feel free to delete my post

Hello, I am trying to follow this post https://forums.oculusvr.com/developer/discussion/66953/solution-for-kiosk-mode-on-oculus-go but I can't wrap my head around some things. I have a manifest and a java script overriding the onCreate and onStop methods (I think). I haven't been able to make the simple singleton AndroidDaemonService and I don't know how to adjust the manifest to include the AndroidDaemonService.

Any help is greatly appreciated

KioskMode.java:

package com.oculus.UnitySample;

import com.unity3d.player.UnityPlayerActivity;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.util.Log;

public class KioskMode extends UnityPlayerActivity {

    @Override

    public void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState, @Nullable PersistableBundle persistentState) {

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState, persistentState);

        Intent mServiceIntent = new Intent(this, AndroidDaemonService.class);

        this.startService(mServiceIntent);

    }

    @Override

    protected void onStop() {

        super.onStop();

        Context context = AndroidDaemonService.instance;

        Intent launchIntent = context.getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage(context.getPackageName());

        launchIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_REORDER_TO_FRONT);

        context.startActivity(launchIntent);

    }
}

This article has some info about kiosk mode for Oculus Go: https://headjack.io/blog/the-ultimate-vr-kiosk-mode-guide/

Although for you the section on the Pico headset might be more interesting, since that one requires some modifications to the AndroidManifest as well, which is probably similar for an Oculus Go app, since they are both running on Android.
